sad state of affairs that such low frequency propaganda is so effective on most of the herd
it’s more than theft or stealing: that’s just depriving you of your property
debasement deprives you if your labor, and denigrates your human dignity.
the formal definition of slavery
why we should put down all the economic talking points and make the moral case. it’s unassailable
which i do in my upcoming book: Modern Chains
Strict ankles to bar: 🔥
again, verify how much inaccessible bitcoin there is.
you cannot, it’s impossible.
the quantum example was just to show the btc doesn’t disappear because it doesn’t move in awhile.
you tell a no coiner bitcoin is deflationary, they find out it’s a fixed supply, they think you’re a moron and think bitcoin is dumb too
or say, bitcoin’s fixed supply causes prices to deflate
if you have a few extra words to spare
if you care about orange pilling people you love, avoid clumsy speech
no, not hence btc deflationary.
the distinction between price and money supply is important and shouldn’t be dissolved cause it will just confuse people.
just speak with a little bit of precision.
prices will deflate, the money supply will not
btc is money, not a price
it’s a few extra words, and keeps everything clear
your statement again is clumsy.
we can verify 4 million coins haven’t moved.
there is no way to verify they are “inaccessible”
just trust you? the entire network is about verification, no thx
a quantum computer comes along and breaks all those “inaccessible” addresses, the btc are suddenly available
i’m not arguing with you to argue
just think about what your sayings
what is the available supply?
how much is there?
the bitcoin is still there anyways.
always 21mil
and there is no way to tell who lost access to btc addresses
your just saying words that mean nothing
humans losing keys is external to bitcoin 🤦♂️
like saying all the steps up to the cliff edge are a waste.
you have to reach the limit to push beyond
why i love sprinkling in power hours for pushups and pulllups:
find a number of reps you can sustain on the minute every minute for 60 minutes.
it would be hard to find a workout that gets more of those “hard but doable” reps in
these are just random words, what are you trying to say?
our entire momentary system is inflationary? yes.
by design? double yes.
for money to be deflationary, it has to reduce its supply.
bitcoin is not deflationary, it’s a fixed supply. prices can deflate, but not the money supply. See Jeff Booth.
That sounds like a perfectly reasonable plan. I am sure everyone who comes into a mountain of money had a plan.
I am trying to understand the data, the economic realities playing out. various numbers are out there, but around 78-85% of lotto winners, huge inheritance recipients, etc are worse off financially in 5 years. that’s crazy
not to mention suicide rates are higher than trans people. the idea there is the relationships buckled leaving them isolated. others started viewing them differently, not in a good way.
i think chalking these realities up to “they were just stupid, i’m not stupid, so it’s fine” is naive.
i think the principle in play has something to do with breaking the proof-of-work grounding to reality.
some can handle it, but most don’t.
there are people who can get into a ferrari at 12 and drive it, but with what is at stake, it’s a much larger gamble than most realize.
I’m not saying there is anything wrong with you. just that coming into money is a big burden that hits really hard
respect 🫡
I was impressed by how much local stuff is going on. That’s where it’s at
The Creature from Jekyll Island
i definately cut back, but any comparative analysis from what i get on the phone, even here on nostr, is insignificant to investing in my children
i can do much better still
i know the words, but the image hit me hard

yeah, you are describing the the deepest sense of liberty.
not an empty notion of freedom:
i am free to do whatever i want, cause im an empty jar filled with nothing, free to be filled with anything
the real notion of freedom:
i am free to live a fully, deeply meaningful life, cause i filled myself full of principle and virtue, a strong and antifragile human being, who transcends useless anxiety and stress
